Frequently Asked Questions
About the reports
How are reports different from a Gartner or IBISWorld report?
Three things. (1) Author — every report is written by a senior procurement practitioner, not a junior analyst pool. (2) Specificity — we cover one ingredient × one region in depth, not 200-page industry sweeps. (3) Price — $99–$349 vs $5,000+.
Are reports AI-generated?
No. Reports are written by Amin Dabbech personally. AI tools are used only to speed up source compilation and formatting — never to generate analysis or conclusions.
How current is the data?
Reports are dated. Each catalog report is refreshed on a 12-month cycle minimum, more often when material market events warrant. Buyers receive one free refresh within 12 months of purchase.
Can I share the report with my team?
Yes. Each purchase includes a single-company licence — share freely inside your organisation. Reselling, public posting, or sharing with third-party clients requires an enterprise licence (contact us).
What format do I get?
Branded PDF (the main deliverable) + Excel companion file (all data tables for further analysis). Both delivered by email link within 60 seconds of payment.
